Texas College and Career Readiness (Credit: 0.50)This one-semester course is intended as a practical, hands-on guide to career exploration and
planning. This course has 16 lessons organized into four units, plus four Unit Activities. Each
lesson contains one or more Lesson Activities. The course ends with a Course Activity in which
